Question

solve and check
13x^2-20x=0

Answer 1

You can factor out an x, giving you

x(13x - 20) = 0

Set them both equal to 0 and solve! To check, simply plug them into the original equation.

Answer 2

can you walk threw it with me pls

Answer 3

So you see in both of the terms, there is at least an x? You can factor that out.
So now you have
x(13x-20) = 0

You can seperate these, and set them both equal to 0, since 0 times anything is equal to 0

so you have

x = 0 and
13x -20 = 0

13x = 20
x = 20/13

So, x will equal either 0 or 13/20.

Answer 4

so i understand this Jonathan so in the end the answer would be 13/20 and i see how you did this thanks
